That said, I sure hope Dixon has the best season of any back in the nation!
I agree. Dixon is amazing for his body type. The other guy is just such a physical beast that he may be able to be better year after year of his career. I would still take Dixon because he can catch the ball and has more field awareness.Quote:

Honestly though what can they do that the legislature hasnt already done?Quote:

Fournette screams first round talent and will be a Heisman contender the next few years. Both are remarkable backs and fun for any fan to watch.Quote:

If you don't know who fournette is, you lose all credibility in any college football discussion.
Dixon could be in the heisman race with a one loss season.
I once knew who he was..... Once he signed with the evil empire, he was dead to me. ;)
I agree with Fournette's declaration that Nick Chubb is the best running back. :)
LOSE credibility? Never knew I had any.:DQuote:

I don't think experience is the key variable when evaluating college running backs. I watched every game Fournette played last year, and I don't think he's as good as Dixon. Speaking of athleticism, there is a video of Dixon doing a 360dunk (at 5'10). Granted Fournette has faster top end speed, I doubt he can do that.Quote:

If it is exposed as untrue (in certain positions), it could hurt their strangle hold.
The dude struck a Heisman pose after scoring against Sam Houston State. He thinks very highly of himself. Then, he got stoned by ULM. He's arrogant.Quote:

Yeah, I agree 100%. If you are a die-hard Tech fan, I think all the good high school athletes, especially in the state, would be on your radar screen in hopes that they would show an interest in signing with Tech. I know one Tech fan that has had personal relationships with high school athletes and shows interest/facilitates in them coming to Tech. I think knowing and encouraging athletes to come here is a good thing rather than having a "who's that?", they're an outsider mentality before they sign.Quote:

Fournette had a few good games and ended the season with a remarkable performance in their bowl game against Notre Dame. He is definitely a load and has great speed once he gets moving. I think Dixon has a larger arsenal in terms of receiving and pass protection. Many will say that Fournette has a higher ceiling than Dixon. I dispute that based on Dixon's versatility. Fournette runs with speed and power. Dixon runs with violence and a nose for the endzone.Quote:

I think if Tech wants to start a campaign for him, we need to do an all out onslaught campaign for the Doak Walker, NO DOUBT. He has a legit shot to win that award if he rushes for 1500+ and 20+ total TD's. He's an extremely accomplished RB and his stats alone will gain him some traction in the early part of the season, and he also has a recognizable name now since he's played for 3 years already.
I think a "Dixon for Heisman" campaign is tantamount to a Doak Walker campaign. Isn't Dixon poised to challenge a few NCAA rushing/td records? If he does and we have a decent season as a team, he might get into the national conversation. I remember DeAngelo Williams being discussed as a Heisman candidate (he finished 2nd to Reggie Bush for Doak Walker).....Quote:

If Tech PR personnel can manage both heisman and doak, then do it. Otherwise invest the time/effort in the Dixon-Doak push, bc the Heisman is just a glorified OBrien (QB) Award these days. Gordon barely sniffed the Heisman with 2500+ yards rushing last year.Quote:

He's gotta run for 500 yds against moo state and k state for people to give him a thought
D Will ran for 1948 as a junior and finished second for doak walker the next season (after 1964 yds rushing).. Both seasons over 6ypc. Dixon is good but let's not compare him to that. One could say Memphis was playing a tougher schedule than we are right now, too.
You speak truth. Heisman winner is "My school made a ton of money this year and I'm also not bad at football."Quote:

If we're promoting him as the best rb in the country (Doak Walker), then he deserves to be in the conversation for Heisman--and, obviously, if he is in the Heisman conversation, he's a Doak Walker candidate.
One of the best places to begin the conversation about Dixon being a possible Heisman and Doak Walker candidate is the 2015 Tech football media guide. If pictures of him aren't prominently displayed and if his name isn't mentioned as a possible Heisman and Doak Walker candidate, that is a HUGE fail.Quote:

He is. In my opinion, it's great for a player to be in "the discussion" of winning the Heisman even if he doesn't have much of a chance of getting it. It brings a lot of notoriety to the player and the school. Also, winning the Heisman will get you the "Heisman curse". :DQuote:

In seriousness, Dixon's game is more developed via experience (remember KD didn't have a ton of receptions his first couple of years at Tech). His receiving game really blossomed last year. I think he is poised for a monster year. I think Fournette will be a beastly runner, but who knows about his receiving skills at this point or blocking skills. That is a hard gap for any kid out of high school to make up (blitz protection and catching out of the backfield). What I do know is that Fournette is built like AP and is fast, and those are two things you just cant teach. I think KD will have the better year, but Fournette has some huge upside (especially in an SEC that doesn't dominate on D like it used to).
Do you think the best running back in the state is at Louisiana Tech?Quote:

You've gotta essentially bow to these media type's self perceived "intelligence" and "way of doing things" to get anywhere on a national award like that. Basically have to suck up to them.
Fournette's running style reminds me a lot of former Oklahoma RB Marcus Dupree. Dupree was 6-3, 230 (bigger than Fournette's 6-1,230), and as Barry Switzer said, "could run over people, around people or through people". He was very fast, and very strong. But he had trouble keeping his weight down and Switzer criticized him often for being out of shape. Dupree left Oklahoma after competing in the Texas game his sophomore year, and was essentially never heard from again....at least not until ESPN did their "30 For 30" piece on him recently.Quote:
Originally Posted by MiloBumP

By the way, Fournette's freshman season was not impressive...at least not until his bowl game performance against Notre Dame.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Fournette
Dixon could finish his career as the all time NCAA leader in td's (rushing). I think he has already broken Tech rushing and td record. I do understand what you're saying when smaller schools tout their guy for Heisman knowing good and well he has no chance. It is embarrassing. That said, Dixon is in rare air. I've heard Fournette's name brought up in Heisman talks a few times. I think if people are going to throw his name out there preseason, it wouldn't hurt to throw Dixon's name out there. Dixon > FournetteQuote:

I bet a CUSA ring and a bowl win will work for him. Awards will be icing.
He rushed for a career high 146 yards at TAMU in the game played before the Notre Dame game.Quote:

That said, Russell Shepard never showed anything close to what Leonard Fournette showed last year.Quote:

He had two other games where he rushed for over 100 yards.
All across the country, including in Ruston, fans are super excited when a freshman shows even glimpses of being productive. Guys like Dixon and Fournette don't come along very often. They were both ready to contribute at a high level immediately. Sure, Fournette struggled at times with consistency. Many freshmen do, even the best of the best. Ryan Moats rushed for 38 yards as a freshman, and we all know what he did the next two years in Ruston. Some of you guys on here, especially you Don, are acting as if it's out of the realm of possibility that Leonard Fournette might actually improve during the offseason before his sophomore year.
Whether or not Leonard Fournette is a great running back (he is) has nothing to do with whether or not Kenneth Dixon is a great running back. Sure, it's fun to talk about them and debate which one is better, but here's a newsflash for you: they both can be better this year than they were last year. It's not like their productivity is tied together, and if Fournette gets 58% better, than means Dixon must be 58% worse.
Who knows if Leonard Fournette will ever reach his true ability. Les Miles has a funny history with RBs, just like he does with QBs. But from a physical talent standpoint, Fournette is the best running back to attend LSU in almost two decades, and the Tigers have had a pretty good stable of backs through the years. He'll likely be one of the top running backs in the country this year. You know what? That's OK, because it has absolutely nothing to do with what will happen in Ruston this fall!
Yep, I agree. They are both fantastic backs and it's almost useless to make comparisons of players that play in different conferences, playing against different defenses, used in different ways, etc. If I am not mistaken, both of them have nearly identical, career 5.5 yards per carry.Quote:

Do y'all remember what Dykes said when he was asked how his team was able to play with SEC teams (specifically--they were talking about Miss State). Dykes basically said it was because our players were as good as their's. Dan Mullen felt the need to respond to that assertion. Why?Quote:

But if those assertions are made, there will be a reaction.
You pay too much attention to stupid stuff that people like Mullen say. :DQuote:

I suppose that actions contrary to the aforementioned things--fumbling, quitting, penalties, half-assing, etc.,... should be considered as well.
Sheperd's high school highlight videos are some of the most impressive I've seen. I remember thinking LSU was crazy for moving him to receiver. Maybe he would've been a great QB at a smaller school, who knows. He has stuck in the NFL so like professor implied, his lack of production in college was probably a result of incompetent offensive coaching.
As for Dixon, I expect him to have monster numbers this year, assuming he stays healthy. If he cleans up the fumbles he might be a 2nd-3rd draft pick. But Fournette will probably be drafted higher regardless of college production.
I saw Fornette play against Arkansas. He has a stand-up-straight running style that will only work against players that are a lot smaller than him like they were in high school. He has no lateral movement at all, so, he needs a big hole to run through. You should have watched the Arkansas game and you would have seen what I mean.Quote:
